Wise choice.. either that or carry a 2nd pertronix for when the first one fails.
I went to a CRANE unit over 10 years ago after my pertronix failed.
I have had a Crane failure.
I had the Crane/Alison ignition on the GT6 for years. I washed the engine bay one day. The remote amplifier got water in it and failed. You could say getting water in it was my fault but the amplifier was supposed to be potted to protect the electronics. The GT6 now has a Pertronix module.
The OP said he bought a Pertronix ignition, not a distributor. Therefore a complete spare distributor in the boot may not be an option. Carrying a spare Pertronix is obviously possible but expensive. For a lot less money you can carry a set of points and condenser in the boot. You can install those whenever necessary to get home.
There is one warning that should be mentioned to the OP since we are talking about ignition module failures. With the Pertronix installed, never leave the key in the RUN position with the engine NOT running. This can overheat the module causing it to fail. Pertronix has warned that with the engine not running, the time the key is left in RUN position should be limited to no more than 1 to 5 minutes (different techs have told people different time limits).
Regarding the Cobalt wires, the text at Moss describes these as "spiral core". Usually that means the wires reduce ignition system noise with inductance instead of resistance. That may not do what Pertronix wants your plug wires to do. I would call Pertronix and ask about them. I have NO experience with the plug wires linked below but they are resistor wires.

Keep in mind that if you are using a right-angle distributor cap, almost any resistor wires you find will require you to remove the crimped on terminals and insert the wire end into the cap. Most plug wire sets these days are made for the "straight" caps.
